0 Comments Tribute to Nate
FOR NATE
THE WINDOW TO NATE’S SOUL WAS HIS GUITAR; HIS FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS WERE EXPRESSED IN EVERY CHORD THAT HE PLAYED. WITH HIS MUSIC, NATE WAS FREE TO COMMUNICATE EVEN WHEN HIS SHY, SOFT-SPOKEN NATURE SOMETIMES MADE IT DIFFICULT TO EXPRESS HIMSELF.
TUESDAY NIGHT, MY SON NICK AND HIS WIFE CORINNE WERE TAKING ME TO A CONCERT AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT. WE WERE NOT YET AWARE OF WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO NATE.
AS WE RODE IN THE CAR, WE WERE LISTENING TO A CD, WHEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON, I BEGAN TO THINK OF NATE. IT SEEMED AS IF HE WAS PLAYING THE GUITAR THAT I WAS HEARING ON THE CD, AND I STARTED REMINISCING ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES LISTENING TO HIM AND HIS FRIENDS MAKING MUSIC. THERE WAS NO SENSE OF DREAD OR PREMONITION, BUT RATHER A PEACEFUL, EASY FEELING THAT CAME OVER ME.
AS WE ARRIVED AT THE CONCERT HALL, WE GOT THE PHONE CALL AND THE NEWS OF HIS PASSING. WE STOOD SHIVERING FROM THE SHOCK AND THE COLD, HUGGING EACH OTHER FOR COMFORT AND SUPPORT. AS WE WONDERED WHAT WE SHOULD DO, I FELT THAT NATE HAD MADE HIS SPIRIT KNOWN TO ME ON THE WAY THERE; THAT HE WAS TELLING US HE WAS OK AND IN A GOOD PLACE.
SO WE DECIDED TO GO ON IN AND TO FEEL THAT NATE’S SPIRIT WAS THERE WITH US; TO LET THE MUSIC WASH OVER US AND BE THE EXPRESSION OF THE LOVE WE FELT FOR HIM, AND THE SORROW WE FELT OF HIS LOSS.
AND THOUGH WE MAY SOMEDAY LEARN THE HOW OF HIS DEATH, WE MAY NEVER UNDERSTAND THE WHY....WHY NATE, SO KIND, SO LOVING, SO YOUNG???
IT IS UP TO US, THOSE WHO KNEW AND LOVED HIM, TO MAKE HIS DEATH COUNT IN SOME WAY, WHETHER TO MAKE US MORE FULLY APPRECIATE OUR OWN LIFE, OR TO MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE ELSE’S, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT NATE WOULD WANT
